The Menu

It doesn't have to be a special occasion to serve filet mignon, and Beef Tenderloin with Mushrooms proves it. Make it in less than 20 minutes, and serve it with Baked Tomatoes, Potatoes au Gratin, and Zucchini with Lemon. Use a package of potatoes au gratin or look for frozen. Crumbled croutons are a good pantry item to keep on hand to add crunch and flavor using only one ingredient -- they're used here for the tomatoes.
